Where Ana de Armas and Tom Cruise's Relationship Stands Amid Dating Rumors
Actress Ana de Armas is officially single following a relationship with Manuel Anido Cuesta, the stepson of Cuba's president, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez. They were first spotted sharing a kiss in November 2024. By May 2025, it was rumored they had split, but the breakup was confirmed by a source speaking to People this week.
Amid her distance from Cuesta, rumors have followed de Armas as she preps for an upcoming film with actor Tom Cruise. The pair has been seen spending time together, leading to whispers of a romantic relationship. But the source indicated she and Cruise are simply working on the Doug Liman-directed thriller, Deeper. De Armas was also supposedly receiving advice from Cruise as she trained for her movie Ballerina, set in the John Wick universe. The movie is filled with stunts, which Cruise is famous for doing in his own films.
'Tom is crazy hardworking and she's very excited to work with him. She calls it an opportunity of a lifetime,' said the insider. 'Tom is an incredible mentor to Ana. She has nothing but amazing things to say about him.'
This week, Cruise and de Armas were photographed together again, enjoying some sunshine on a yacht near the island of Menorca, just off the coast of Spain.
The source emphasized that their connection is 'not romantic.'
In February, a source told People something similar after they were seen having dinner together with their agents, during which they were supposedly 'discussing potential collaborations down the line' and 'appeared to have no romantic connection, just friends.'
They have since been seen in London, after attending David Beckham's 50th birthday party, and then again in early May taking a walk through the park on de Armas's 37th birthday.
In June, the actress told Variety that Cruise's support for Ballerina was 'unbelievable' and 'amazing.'
'It is very special that someone like him is supporting,' she shared. 'It is really special in general to have other actors and people supporting each other. We can do well all together.'

Aaron Phypers accuses Denise Richards of addiction, affair amid turmoil over divorce, report says
Aaron Phypers has accused estranged wife Denise Richards of having an addiction to the painkiller Vicodin and an 'ongoing' affair, according to Page Six, which obtained a letter written by Phypers that reportedly contains the allegations. The allegations come in the wake of Phypers filing for divorce from 'The Bold and the Beautiful' actor on July 7 and Richards obtaining a temporary restraining order against him early last week. The letter, said to be addressed to friends and family, alleges that the former Real Housewife is addicted to Vicodin and Adderall and combines the drugs with tequila. He also said that he and his parents have been mistreated since his divorce filing. 'This isn't just a relationship breaking down. It's a cry for help,' he alleges, per Page Six, and asks for prayers for Richards. A representative for Richards didn't respond immediately to The Times' request for comment. 'Some of you know this has been an issue for over 20 years. She's no longer eating real meals, and I've witnessed her pass out from substances — putting herself and others in danger, including while driving with our daughter,' Phypers wrote. He also claimed he had 'never, ever' physically harmed Richards, despite her allegations in last week's restraining order application. And, he wrote, per Page Six, that he found evidence earlier this year that she was having an affair. He said Richards denied having an affair, despite alleged 'explicit messages' he said he had discovered. Richards' allegations in her restraining order request were more dramatic. 'Throughout our relationship, Aaron would frequently violently choke me, violently squeeze my head with both hands, tightly squeeze my arms, violently slap me in my face and head, aggressively slam my head into the bathroom towel rack, threaten to kill me, hold me down with his knee on my back to the point where I would have to plead with him to get off me so that he would not kill me,' she alleged in her filing. She included photos of herself with a black eye and alleged Phypers regularly called her profane and demeaning names and periodically threatened to kill her or himself. The temporary stay-away order was granted immediately, with a hearing scheduled for Aug. 8 to make the restraining order permanent. Richards adopted daughter Eloise, now 14, as an infant in 2011; she and Phypers started dating in 2017 and married in September 2018, a month after his divorce from Nicollette Sheridan was final. Richards shares two adult daughters, Sam and Lola, with ex-husband Charlie Sheen. Phypers' legal slate is filling up lately. In addition to his divorce filing and Richards' restraining order, he was sued in January for alleged fraud linked to verbal claims he made about the efficacy of a stem-cell treatment available at his Malibu wellness center. The lawsuit was brought by the husband of a woman who died from cancer after Phypers allegedly told her in 2023, according to People, that she would be cured, or at least much improved, by his $126,000 treatment.
